Physical disconnection

Physical disconnection is the experience of feeling distant and detached from one's sense of touch and their feelings of ownership and control over their own physical body. This leads into states such as tactile suppression, physical autonomy, pain relief, changes in felt bodily form, a perception of bodily lightness, and a general array of physical suppressions. The experience of this effect can also create a wide range of subjective changes to a person's perception of their own body. These are described and documented in the list below:

Feeling as if one's body is not their own

Feeling as if one's body is controlling itself

Feeling as if one's body is distant and far away

Feeling as if one's bodily movement is mechanical and robotic

Feeling a decrease in one's ability to use fine motor control

Feeling a decrease in one's ability to use and perceive their sense of touch
